  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 6 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 2 cups granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups cake flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed butter mixture, alternating with 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup finely chopped almonds.
  7. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until just incorporated.
  8. Divide batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  9. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  12. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt.
  13. Bring mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves.
  14. In a clean mixing bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with an electric mixer until foamy.

  16. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  17. Frost the cooled cakes and enjoy!
